what do i see.

appearance. snow is taller than average for females, hitting 1,7m, and 50kg with a slim, hourglass figure also well endowed in the right places. her arms and thighs are well defined, due to her training in martial arts and boxing. she usually ties up her sleek black hair into a ponytail, with the hair reaching up to her chest when untied. snow also has various piercings: her left ear has a helix, conch, tragus, and 2 piercings on the lobe, while her right ear has just 2 piercings on the lobe. snow also has 3 tattoos inked on her:

the first one on her left arm, just before her elbow, a figure of her older brother and her: Her older brother, her only kin, and always protecting her.

the second one, wings on her back: freedom, and to soar above the rest

the last one, a compass on her right arm, after her elbow: to keep moving forward towards a goal and to never stray away from the path nor lose sight of it.

style.  cropped t-shirts and ripped jeans are her kinda style, but if she's feeling up to it, snow likes tank tops and dresses as well.

   what is within.

personality traits.  

Direct - snow has a calm and cold exterior, and prefers getting her thoughts to the other person in as little words as possible.

Just - snow is unable to stand any form of unfairness, and will speak up and go through means to make things fair, even if the end result goes against her.

Loyal - once a friend, always a friend. if you're close to her, she'll be there for you even in your darkest and saddest days. 

background.  

snow was born on 14th june, 1997, in east district, tainan, to a poor couple who wanted to sell her away as they could not afford the means to bring her up. her parents chose to abandon her and her brother in the end after a year of struggles. her brother, 15 years older than her, was her only support. with help from their relatives, they were able to move into a small rented room, where they stayed ever since.

as a kid, snow loved to sing and had a natural flair for piano (which her brother scrimped and saved in order to buy a decent one for her.) she even managed to clinch 1st place in a talent contest when she was 8 years old, and slowly gained popularity in her primary school. however, due to her family background, she was often bullied, and realised that she had to become stronger in order to fight back. her brother, a professional fighter, was reluctant to teach her at first, saying that girls should not be learning such stuff as it wasn't girly at all, but gave in as he couldn't be there to save her all the time. she graduated primary school wtih relative ease thereafter.

snow mixed around and had a lot of friends in secondary school, but was called up by the principal often due to excessive fighting (her brother was really pissed off; it wasn't her fault, people were bullying her friends and she was the only one strong enough to fight back.) with all these troubles, her grades dropped, and she barely graduated. by then, she was already famous throughout various schools in the district, a fighter with beauty and brawns, and she entered the same high school as her brother (the worst high school in the district due to the amount of gangsters and bullies.) 

what she didn't know was that her brother once controlled the whole school on his own as he singlehandedly subdued all the bullies and gangsters, and she, too, went down the same path as him. what was once a rowdy school became a quiet, studious place; students and teachers respected her and referred to her as King, the strongest and most popular person in the school. she still practiced piano and loved singing, but it was kept hidden as she believed it was too girly and weak for her image then.

it was in the third year of high school where her brother suffered a life-threatening injury after an accident; there was a nationwide contest which paid well and the winner was given the opportunity to sign a contract with one of the biggest compainies in taiwan. she needed the money to pay the hospital bills, and having no other choices, she exposed her problems and her love for singing to her classmates, asking for opinions and whether she should join the contest. the whole class pushed her to join without hesitation, and even chipped in to pay off her brother's hospital bills. snow didn't win the contest in the end, but her story and popularity touched the hearts of many. she was also given the chance to release a single, with the royalties all going to herself, which could possibly ease her burden.

after she graduated, she had no plans, wanting to transit into working life immediately in order to support herself and her brother who had had permanent handicap after the accident. however, banana culture music, having a satellite office in china, contacted her, wanting her to audition into the company. snow knew little about hallyu and the industry, and she didn't want to leave her brother alone, especially after his injury. It was him who convinced her to audition for it; singing was what she loved, and if she could be successful at it, why not? it was a long road ahead and it'll take a while for her to start earning money, but with the goal of giving her brother a better life, she grabbed hold of the opportunity and decided to go for it.

   Q&A time 

Hi welcome to Produce100, I am a staff from MNET and I'd need you to answer some of these questions.

there are 100 seats, which seat would you sit at, why?  50 or so? i believe that i still need some improvement, especially when i'm not a native here. but, i know i'm better than at least half of them so... yeah 50's the number. i'll certainly be aiming for that top spot though.

be honest, you are here for the boys/girls.  no. i'm only here for my chance at debut, which equates to a chance to start earning money earlier to give my brother a better life.  

how would you pick your songs for evaluations.  
vocal songs would be the best. maybe a ballad? i'm not that proficient in rap nor dance, not yet, so for a better chance of advancing, i'll do something that i'm the best at, which is singing.

there are so many trainees, how can you make us remember you.  
i think people already know me... somewhat, from that scandal back then. and... i've a huge back tattoo, with a pretty face. i think that stands out already.

trainee years. 2 years (2016 - 2018)

trainee life. snow was contacted by banana culture music after they heard her release single. she had no absolute plan for her future after high school, and with banana culture's intvitation for a private audition, she passed with her visuals and her vocals.

as she was a non-dancer, she had to practice countless of times in order to get her moves right. her mentality was strong, and since she was already in the company, she planned on doing her best in order to succeed. 

snow, with a language barrier, found it hard to make friends at first. however, just like how she stood up for her classmates in high school, she stood up for the trainees, and her hot headed temper made her clash with trainers loads of times. 

with that, trainees wanted to be close to her, and referred to her as "Strong Unnie". the trainers however, were unpleased with her actions and snow was given a warning to tone down. 

pre-debut.
participated in a televised singing series, eliminated in the earlier stages but managed to release a single titled "Thinking About Somebody" :: 2015

scandals.
her notorious high school activities aka beating up people were exposed by netizens, threatening her contract, but her former classmates, schoolmates and teachers fought back against the netizens, submitting an appeal with records of the school bullying cases and how it decreased with snow's intervention, as snow only fought to protect people. due to that, she gained more respect from people and the media and news of her quickly died down afterwards. :: true :: 2013-2015

last words. there you go~ i hope she passes T.T i made her a really strong character compared to tzuyu in real life, she might not be a character that is idol-like, but she's definitely one of a kind. snow's a reference to a character in K.O. One Returns, and because i really like that series so here she is :P
